Join One More Page Books for an evening with one of our favorite maven's of horror...Alma Katsu. As a former senior intelligence analyst, Katsu has a unique perspective on the perils of social media and technology as they've become ingrained in our daily lives. Eileen and Lelia have been huge fans of hers since she first visited OMP in 2011, and they're so excited to share the latest of Katsu's fierce fiction!
Katsu will be interviewed by author and screenwriter Jamie Flanagan (The Haunting of Bly Manor).
ABOUT INCARNATE:
From beloved horror maven Alma Katsu comes a terrifying reimagining of The Picture of Dorian Gray for the internet age.
Beauty doesn't fade. It feeds.
Dorothy Wagner has spent her whole life wanting nothing more than to be seen. But after failing to make her mark as an influencer, she takes a job working for a brilliant coder whose company is focused on cutting-edge deepfake technology. And there, in secret, is where she creates her salvation.
Isabella. An impossibly gorgeous girl who takes social media by storm. Dorothy's artistry is brilliant, and Isabella seems so real that she garners millions of followers. But everybody knows overnight success doesn't just happen. And when someone gets a little too close to the truth, a violent confrontation sends Dorothy on the run, forcing her to confront what she's willing to sacrifice to keep her secrets.
A modern reimagining of a classic tale, Alma Katsu's Incarnate is an illuminating, haunting tale of algorithmic worship and beauty that can kill.

Alma Katsu (she/her) is the author of Fiend, The Hunger, The Deep, The Fervor, and five other novels.

The 2026 Falls Church Arts “Scenes in the City” Plein Air Festival culminates on Saturday, September 26, from 8 a.m. to noon, with a lively morning of outdoor painting, competition, judging, cash awards, and art sales.
The festival will take place on the grounds of Falls Church City Hall, 300 Park Avenue. Visitors can watch artists paint en plein air—French for “in the open air”—as they work quickly on location to capture changing light, atmosphere, and the character of Falls Church.
Before the September 26 finale, artists have had three weeks to capture picturesque and historic scenes throughout Falls Church, including the W&amp;OD Trail, local parks, Cherry Hill Farmhouse, Clare and Don’s Beach Shack, and the Falls Church Farmers Market.
More than forty artists will compete for cash prizes. Noted juror Glen Kessler will judge the paintings and announce the winners at noon. The 2025 festival awarded more than $5,000 in prizes, and generous sponsors have made this year’s awards possible.
The morning’s centerpiece is the Quick Draw Competition, in which participants create an original painting within the three-hour festival window and submit it for judging. The competition is open to artists of all ages and skill levels, who may register at the Quick Draw table for a $15 entry fee.
Attendees may also vote for their favorite painting in the People’s Choice Award, honoring the artwork that receives the most public votes.
This free, family-friendly event invites visitors to meet the artists, watch paintings take shape, and purchase original artwork to take home the same day. If it rains, the festival will be held on October 3.

Our services include strategic CFO advisory, accounting and client advisory services (CAS), tax strategy, financial systems and automation, and risk and governance. What makes R2 different: we don't treat accounting, tax, and advisory as separate functions. Every engagement is built on one integrated structure — so reporting stays consistent, leadership gets reliable numbers, and nothing conflicts across areas. R2 Advisors serves organizations navigating growth, operational complexity, and leadership transitions — from multi-location operations and compliance-heavy environments to service-based businesses and project-driven firms. Industries served include government contracting, healthcare, professional services, nonprofits, technology, and capital markets. 1775 Tysons Blvd, Office 4162, McLean, VA 22102 r2.cpa | (571) 766-6727
